Considerable confusion exists within Capsicum (Solanaceae) about the status and typification of several names, in part due to misidentification. In addition, some specimens that serve as types have never been found or were destroyed in Berlin during the Second World War while others exhibit uncertain locality data or are composed of plants belong to more than one species, and thus require lectotypification. Fourteen lectotypes, synonyms, and a new name are here proposed.
